We would like to proudly announce that this year, the proceeds from this winter's auction will go to Autism Speaks! Here is a little more info on Autism Speaks:

Autism Speaks was founded in February 2005 by Bob and Suzanne Wright, grandparents of a child with autism. Their longtime friend Bernie Marcus donated $25 million to help financially launch the organization. Since then, Autism Speaks has grown into the world's leading autism science and advocacy organization, dedicated to funding research into the causes, prevention, treatments and a cure for autism; increasing awareness of autism spectrum disorders; and advocating for the needs of individuals with autism and their families.

This year's auction will be amazing! We have some great donations set up for the auction, thanks to some great donating partners, and are looking forward to the support that we will be able to give to Autism Speaks and the great services, research and more that the charity provides.

We will introduce the items in the auction package soon, one at a time. Along with the items, we will also give a list of donors who are making the auction possible.
